Major Definitions

Photosynthesis
o Process by which a plant converts solar energy into

chemical energy

Chlorophyll
o Green pigment found in leaves of plants that absorbs

light energy

Cellular Respiration
o Process that converts chemical energy in nutrients into

chemical energy in the form of ATP

Fermentation
o Process of breaking down pyruvate/pyruvic acid in the

absence of oxygen

Major Definitions

Krebs Cycle
o Process of breaking down pyruvate/pyruvic acid into

carbon dioxide, water, and ATP

Glycolysis
o Process of breaking down glucose into pyruvate/pyruvic

acid and ATP

Electron Transport Chain

o Series of chemical reactions ending with hydrogen

combining with oxygen to produce water; each reaction

produces ATP
